The Privacy Iceberg

(I tried my best)

The background is an iceberg with 6 levels, denoting 6 different levels of privacy.

The tip of the iceberg is titled “The Brainwashed” with a quote beside it that says “I have nothing to hide”. The logos depicted in this section are:

The surface section of the iceberg is titled “As seen on TV” with a quote beside it that says “This video is sponsored by…”. The logos depicted in this section are:

An underwater section of the iceberg is titled “The Beginner” with a quote beside it that says “I don’t like hackers and spying”. The logos depicted in this section are:

A lower section of the iceberg is titled “The Privacy Enthusiast” with a quote beside it that says “I have nothing I want to show”. The logos depicted in this section are:

An even lower section of the iceberg is titled “The Privacy Activist” with a quote beside it that says “Privacy is a human right”. The logos depicted in this section are:

The lowest portion of the iceberg is titled “The Ghost”. There is a quote beside it that has been intentionally redacted. The images depicted in this section are:

  • A cancel sign over a mobile phone, symbolizing “no electronics”
  • An illustration of a log cabin, symbolizing “living in a log cabin in the woods”
  • A picture of gold bars, symbolizing “paying only in gold”
  • A picture of a death certificate, symbolizing “faking your own death”
  • An AI generated picture of a person wearing a black hoodie, a baseball cap, a face mask, and reflective sunglasses, symbolizing “hiding ones identity in public”

    Brave is and always has been gross. Never understood how they’ve been so successful at tricking people into installing it.

      OP replied in another comment its because “firefox is not secure” https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/43710170/18564861 :

      […] Chromium-based browsers aren’t all bad, such as Vanadium or Trivalent, so people sometimes feel more comfortable sticking with what seems familiar (coming from Chrome).

      In another reply parents to this one:

      LibreWolf is far from secure, as it is based on Firefox and so comes with the same security issues. If you meant to say privacy and not security, the reason nobody makes high threat model browsers for Windows is because Windows itself is not private and it would be a losing battle.

      So OP is saying it’s not private nor safe? I get what some people are saying of Firefox constantly changing Terms of Services but that’d be in regard to privacy not security and OP tries to argue not being safe which his iceberg also implies in terms of privacy not being good too. Yeah, LibreFox’s ToS isn’t the same as Firefox’s ToS and his counterarguments to Firefox and Firefox-based on replies is Chrome-based browsers exclusive to niche OSes (also OP don’t even try arguing Brave on comments so probably just trying to rage-bait with every opportunity). I’d love OP to argue using the examples he used in the iceberg. So many discourse incosistencies along with the iceberg. Also OP FYI while privacy does not mean secure, lack of privacy could mean security risks in some cases.
